Keep the SD Chargers Cannon in SD!

Ron Dixon is selling the Chargers Navy Cannon - which would be fired after every single Chargers touchdown in San Diego since they started here in 1961. Lets help Ron by raising funds to buy this cannon and keep it here where it belongs - IN SAN DIEGO!
Known as the “Cannon Man,” Dixon, 70, has rarely swayed from schedule. He’s missed just three games in 37 years of operating the cannon (all because of illness) but now, his routine is about to drastically change.
The San Diego Chargers have relocated to Los Angeles, and Dixon isn’t going with them.
“I used to go to Los Angeles a lot on business,” said Dixon, who owned a local pyrotechnics company. “We would work in theme parks and most of Los Angeles and L.A. County. I don’t have any desire to go up I-5 or 101 [Freeway] again. I’m getting too old for that.”
